Review on 🩳 CW-X Men's Stabilyx Compression Tights with Joint Support by William Fowler

I've tried a lot of running tights and compression pants over the last few years. One of the first ones I bought was from the CW-X. And then I looked for a cheaper alternative because I didn't have any more money. Some of my other purchases were fine, some didn't hold compression, some sagged and didn't stay in place. While all of my other purchases were cheaper, many of them quickly ended up on the donation pile, meaning I spent more money looking for my next option. Do you remember I'm not made of money? So this is my third pair of CW-X tights because it makes sense to invest in good gear that takes care of you. So let's talk a little bit about the good and the bad. pantyhose. I'm used to kinesio taping to support bodily function, and these tights translate the same principle right into the fabric. You will feel the difference as soon as you put them on. I can't give an exact percentage of the increase in performance, but you can feel the difference and most pants can't say that. Bad: Well, let's face it, they're expensive. Okay, but the high dollar amount is still a hurdle. While performing well in hard running is great, it's just not necessary for the 90% of runners for whom "good" works just as well. If you're not competitive or don't have disposable income, you can choose good options for half the cost. My other, somewhat trivial, complaint is the lack of pockets. There's a fairly small pocket, very similar to what you'd find in a bathing suit, but it's not very secure, and forget about carrying anything more than a small key. My car keys are too big for my pocket and I don't have large electronic keys like my wife's car. Many other running shorts and tights have a zip pocket at the center back around the waist. This option is secure, can be made big enough to carry an ID and doesn't really ruin the design like the side pockets as compression is still the goal. If they added this feature, they would be head and shoulders ahead of their closest competitors. Still, these are my go-to pants for races and days when I need a little extra for a hard run. But they overcome a few small setbacks and get 5 stars from me.
